Vintage Hilux Design Updated for Trail Use

The Tamiya 23690 RTR 1/10 Toyota Bruiser RN36 recreates the appeal of the 1980s Toyota Hilux in a scale RC truck. It targets hobbyists who want a nostalgic body shell paired with practical, serviceable RC components.

Traditional Styling Backed by Modern Mechanics

Although the body recalls the original Hilux, the Bruiser uses modern RC engineering, including a sturdy ladder frame and a Type 540 brushed motor. Its 3-speed transmission lets you select the right gearing for crawly technical sections or faster runs.

Durable Chassis and Suspension

The live axle layout with metal housings, leaf springs and oil dampers delivers predictable behaviour on rough ground. A metal front under guard offers extra protection, while the injection-moulded shell and big 123mm tyres add clearance and scale presence.

Out of Box Running

Factory finished and equipped with an FM radio and ESC, the model needs just a 7.2V battery and a charger to be operational, making it easy to get on the track or trail.

For scale enthusiasts who enjoy field runs and trail work, the Tamiya 23690 RTR 1/10 Toyota Bruiser RN36 balances period-correct looks with chassis features that handle real off-road conditions.

Yes, the authentic body lines and large tyres make it a great candidate for scale display and mild trail courses when detailed appropriately.
The live axles with oil dampers and leaf springs offer robust compliance, which helps maintain traction over roots and rocks.
Owners often fit stronger steering links, improved tyres, or a brushless motor and compatible ESC to boost speed and durability.
The included electronics are basic FM components; avoid running in heavy rain and consider sealing or upgrading electronics for wet conditions.
